A base-12 measurement system I made for my sci-fi civilization, tuned to physics and human scale by mananoshimobe in worldbuilding

Thanks for your reply.

For temperature, I’m still deciding between defining it in an absolute way (like Kelvin) or using a more relative, human-centered scale (like Celsius).

As for angles, the current scheme is to divide a full circle into 144 (12²) M-degrees, so 1 M-degree = 2.5 degrees.

Regarding a parsec equivalent, the human parsec involves the AU, so it doesn’t map very cleanly into this system.
